If our esteemed leader and his esteemed team deem it okay to lie to their voters (Dr Kelly, Iraq, IR35, Mr Foster's property deals,....), do I still have a moral obligation to be honest about my income when submitting my tax return?

Charity worker freed at last!

At least Archer was only standing up for himself in court when he got four years for it.

(Surely when a judge advises a jury that they must decide which side is telling the truth, he is always implying therefore that one side is not. So why doesn't EVERY unsucessful party to a trial get four years for perjury?) -- BUT that's another story)

What do THIS LOT deserve?

But do we deserve Gordon (Commisar's Uniform pressed and waiting in the wardrobe) Brown as leader?

I always said that A Campbell Esq was the power behind the force long before New Labour were elected. He used to "rough up" protesters at the back of election rallies when his protege was speaking. Talk about Svengali!! In seriousness though, this wheeler dealer* must now go AND go without the fat pension that seems the norm in national life these days.

(I prefer this term* to "Spin Doctor" - my sons are training to be doctors and I wouldn't taint their chosen profession by association to Campbell. Wheeler dealer is much more appropriate with it's associations with Arthur Daley)

But they need all of your tax money to buy more kit to replace that expended in the fruitless and misguided attempt to "seek and destroy weapons of mass destruction"... eer, no, sorry, "remove a brutal dictator".

BTW - how easy is it to make murder look like suicide? (Just a general question, you understand?)

Glad someone else wondered the same. Especially as the method chosen was one only normally used by the mentally disturbed wanting attention, rather than those seriously trying to kill themselves with minimum pain.

Now how long before we get accused of being conspiracy theorists?

If they need all my money, they could win a major PR exercise by saying "We've made the self-assessment return easier to fill in"
Q1: How much do you earn?___________
Make a cheque payable to Inland Revenue for the amount specified in Q1.

As with our estemed leader and team - only when you think you can get away with it. From personal experience, the Revenue have an unmatched ability to make your life a misery if they think that you are trying it on. Like for several years duration - not of tax but of endless questions and record searching, hiring of accountants and solicitors. And they tend not to differentiate between big fiddle and little fiddle, in the suspicion that the latter is only the tip of an iceberg

So it all depends on how much you value peace of mind and a less stressful life - and how much money is involved. Personally, I would stick to the many legal ways of screwing the government.

Incidentally, and I am most definitely not a labour voter, I have yet to identify where they have told a direct lie, as opposed to giving a sleazy appearance.

Any medical types on here? If I recall a conversation with a medical type correctly, it is very unlikely that slashing your wrists will be successful because of the toughness of the archeries or something like that.

Cutting wrists works fine if you are serious about it and cut deep. Many people who attempt this method don't cut deep, and end up with superficial bleeding, and paralysed hands, as the nerve here lies closer to the surface than the arteries

I have to say that I wondered about the method selected by a micro-biological expert, presumably with the facilities of a lab at hand.

Politicians do not tell lies, they are "economical with the truth" or are becoming "a stranger to the truth".

I think the whole thing sounds very suspect, what I want to know is what was TB, who's dossier was so humiliated by the BBC doing on the night in question...oh know I forgot he was in another country not running ours as usual.

Will the current crop of liars get the same sentence as poor Geofrey? I'm not sure I want my taxes paying for all them in jail as well, that's space a good few muggers could occupy. Do we have an extradition treaty with the USA?
